| Research Abstract |
To determine ethnic variation of large joint osteoarthritis (OA), 1209 adult skeletons, excavated from archaeological sites in Japan, China, and France, were assessed for OA as defined by the presence of eburnation.
Within Asian skeletal populations, elbow OA and patellofemoral joint OA were more common in gather-hunters than in agriculturists. Compared with Caucasians, the Asian skeletal population had a higher prevalence of tibiofemoral joint OA.
The relative frequency of OA within and between ethnic groups at certain joint sites has changed over time from the past to the present.
